Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of thyroid hormone binding by transthyretins in birds and mammals
TL;DR: The N-termini of the transthyretin subunits are longer and more hydrophobic in chicken than in eutherians, and it is shown that this is a general structural feature of avian tranSthyretins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural analysis of the carbohydrate moiety of arabinogalactan-proteins from stigmas and styles of Nicotiana alata
Alison M. Gane,David J. Craik,Sharon L. A. Munro,Geoffrey J. Howlett,Adrienne E. Clarke,Antony Bacic +5 more
TL;DR: This analysis represents the most complete 1H assignment for AGP molecules in solution and no difference in the carbohydrate analyses was found between AGPs isolated separately from stigmatic or stylar tissue, or betweenAGPs isolated from stigmas and styles of plants of different self-incompatibility genotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell-wall polysaccharides from Australian red algae of the family Solieriaceae (Gigartinales, Rhodophyta): novel, highly pyruvated carrageenans from the genus Callophycus
Anthony Chiovitti,Antony Bacic,David J. Craik,Sharon L. A. Munro,Gerald T. Kraft,Ming-Long Liao +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, cell-wall polysaccharides from six species of red algae of the genus Callophycus were mainly galactose (Gal) and 3,6-anhydrogalactose(AnGal), and were rich in pyruvate and sulfate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural characteristics of bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana) transthyretin and its cDNA--comparison of its pattern of expression during metamorphosis with that of lipocalin.
Kiyoshi Yamauchi,Hiro-aki Takeuchi,Maree L. Overall,Marie Dziadek,Sharon L. A. Munro,Gerhard Schreiber +5 more
TL;DR: The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA for a THBP found in plasma of bullfrog tadpoles before the climax of metamorphosis clearly shows this protein to be an amphibian transthyretin, which is highly conserved at the thyroid hormone-binding sites and other important structural regions of the subunits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Beta-Kappa-Carrageenans as Evidence for Continued Separation of the Families Dicranemataceae and Sarcodiaceae (gigartinales, Rhodophyta)
TL;DR: Chemical and anatomical examination of the genus Sarcodia, which produce lambda‐type carrageenan in both its gametophytic and tetrasporophytic phases, suggests that, despite the recent proposal to incorporate the Dicranemataceae into the Sarcodiaceae, the two families should continue to be separated.
